TO ALL OUR VALUED READERS AND DEVOTED FRIENDS:
It has been brought to my attention that the pictures which were represented to me, as being of Hurricane Katrina as it passed over and through Magee, Mississippi, are not authentic.
Here's the message we received:
Re: YOU HAVE TO SEE THE KATRINA PHOTOS ....
Please do not use my handle or name.
Those pics are NOT from Magee, Ms.!!! Believe me I live here.
Only one MIGHT be, but it wasn't taken during Katrina.
The devastation was horrible, but we don't need folks misleading others with pics that are probably taken from the mid-west.
***************************************************************************
The trusted friend who sent this to me back at the end of March was queried about these photographs on several occasions, and she did not know who took them ( by name ). She rec'd them from a list of other computer graphic artists and image handlers and so she considered them to be genuine. In fairness to her, there was no exchange of money or value for these pictures, as she sent them to me in the interest of my coverage of Hurricane Katrina. And my studies on the storm's development.
With regard to the comments of the Reader from Magee, I must disclaim any intent to mislead or bamboozle our valued Readers on this subject. The original send from my contact included other, less dramatic images which were definitely pictures of the storm surge and other weather associated with Katrina.
Taken all together these images seemed to form a coherent story of Katrina in pictures. While I cannot even claim to be a novice in these matters, and while I made an effort to identify the photographer, this effort was insufficient to such an important story. That makes the error solely my fault.
No blame attaches to any other Agent of the Rumor Mill News Agency and neither is our publisher and editor, Rayelan, at fault here. If anyone was bamboozled by this set of images, it was me, and me alone. As Executive Editor I should have sensed that it was all too good to be true, as it is now clear that it was entirely too good to be true.
Again, there was absolutely no motive for, nor attempt to, deceive the valued Readers of this site and news agency.
There's a fine old saying -- "be careful of what you wish ( or pray ) for, as you may just get it". Most anyone would think that I had learned this lesson by now ... but they would be wrong, for I clearly did not learn it well enough.
In this instance, the images sent to me were right in tune with the line of reasoning and investigation that I have been following, as concerns Katrina and associated weather events, since about the time the storm made its second landfall. It is still my contention that Tesla energy or Scalar EM weapons were somehow employed in the direction and amplification of that storm. Given that Scalar weapons are employed in 'events' and that the energy is either wholly invisible or nearly invisible, it is extremely difficult to prove at the time of 'an event' that the weapons are being employed.
We can only 'walk the cat backwards' in the aftermath of an event where we suspect that Tesla energy or Scalar EM weapons have been employed. We must make deductions on the markers left behind -- such as the pulverization of almost everything of substance in the fall of the World Trade Center towers, with the exception of things made of glass ( non-conducting ) -- or the shredding of the bodies of the victims who died in the crash of Swissair 111 when it fell into Peggy's Cove, in Canada.
It's quite painful to arise and know that a scam has been perpetrated and even more painful to have it affect the discussion of an interest shared by others on this site and by so many of our valued Readers. To say it is humiliating in the extreme is barely to say enough.
My thanks to all the valued Readers who have supported us on this site, over the past years, and who have given freely to me of their time and their comments, on all the many issues which I have covered. That support has helped us grow and mature.
Richard C. Green
Executive Editor
